Second Grade Homework Is Harder Than You Think
March 29th, 2007 Family Life, Humor
My daughter had homework and my wife was helping her. Make a list of 10 things that float. Easy.
A piece of wood.
A rubber duck.
A boat.
A bar of soap.
“A what?”
“A bar of soap.”
“What’s that?”
“Well it’s soap, but in bar form.”
“…”
“It’s like a solid piece of soap, like a block of soap.”
“Like it’s frozen?”
“No. It’s just solid. Thats how soap used to come.”
“How did you get it out of the bottle?”
“It didn’t come in a bottle, it came wrapped in paper.”
“…”
“Really, a bar of soap. It floats.”
“Are you tricking me?”
“Go ask Dad then”
Pitter Patter…
“Dad, is it true what bars of soap are?”
“Yep, it used to be that if you said a bad word, your Mom told you a story about how her Mom would have made you bite into one to teach you not to say bad words.”
“…!?”
“…”
“I’m trying to do my homework...”
